The
Primetime Emmy Awards will be broadcast live across the country from NOKIA
Theater L.A. LIVE in Los Angeles, Sunday, Sept. 22, at 8 p.m. on the CBS
Television Network.

Nominated
for her role in the ABC series "Scandal," Washington is the first African-American
woman since 1995 to be nominated in the category of Outstanding Lead Actress in
a Drama Series. She will present with groundbreaking iconic actress and
four-time Emmy nominee Carroll, who currently appears on the drama "White Collar."

Following
their Emmy-nominated performance as hosts of The 70th Annual Golden
Globe Awards, Fey and Poehler, who are nominated for a combined 11 Emmys, will
join forces again as presenters this year.

Though
Zooey and Emily Deschanel share the FOX network for their shows, this will be
the first time they share the Emmy stage together as presenters.

Four-time
Emmy winner Janney, along with co-star Faris, who both star in the new CBS
comedy series "Mom," will also present at the Emmys.
